Shower Scrubby...

I love to check out the Tangled Happy blog every day. In July of last year, I found this pattern for a flower pillow. Well, the second picture in the post is for a shower scrubby. You just crochet 4 rounds of the pillow pattern and stitch them together. I love this idea and I have been thinking about doing something like this with cotton yarn. I can just throw it in the laundry with the towels to get it clean, which makes me happy.

For the scrubby that I made, I crocheted 4 rounds of the pattern for the front and 5 rounds of double crochet plus a strip of 5 double crochets across - and long enough to fit the hand - to make a "handle" for the back. I used Sugar and Cream yarn in Cream, Robins Egg, Rose Petal and Ecru.

The creator of the pattern crocheted 12 rows (rounds) for her pillow. For the scrubby, I crocheted the first four rows of the pattern. Then, for the back, I crochet 5 rows in the round of double crochet, crocheted my handle and then whip stitched them together.

I tried to go to thegardenbell and was denied access. Here's the message I got:

"This blog is open to invited readers onlyhttp://thegardenbell.blogspot.com/It doesn't look like you have been invited to read this blog. If you think that this is a mistake, you might want to contact the blog author and request an invitation."

I have also tried to connect via the link that you provided for the pattern for the scrubby and I also was denied. Also tried getting the actual pillow pattern you referred to again also denied. Could you email me the pattern at tammy_mom2@yahoo.com? I would greatly appreciate it. Want to make them for my sisters and mom for christmas.
